Sorry. Not trolling. But there is some real hatred here. There is bad on both sides, but CyTwins is on his own planet. I just fear a person like CyTwins spends way to much negative energy on a college sports team. I have no problems with Cyclones, Cyclone fans, or Cyclone message boards. But, I do have trouble with CyTwins. He is a laughing stock in the Hawkeye universe. Even my Cyclone friends thinks he is off his rocker.
CyTwins is doing the job ANY of your beat writers should do at least once in a while but never do. It gets old, and Twins doesn't miss a thing.

Meanwhile Randy Peterson is reminding our head coach that everyone around the country says he should leave every chance he can get.

Well, since they couldn't put anything about the game in the Sunday paper, they still had to give Iowa some kind of positive press with a big ol' picture of the Iowa-Purdue basketball game and the headline "Iowa gains confidence despite loss to Purdue" (I can't remember what it actually says, so I am paraphrasing.}

His constant hammering of the truth only seems like weird hate because of your ignorance. But as this thread has made clear, it’s not really your fault, you have decades of media in this state being fanboys.

Meanwhile Travis Hines covering Iowa St so desperately wants to prove he’s impartial, he has become a hater.

What? Wait, the vaunted Iowa Defense gave up 45 yards per game more than the vaunted Iowa Offense was able to muster? (paragraph from Hlas column this morning)

That went directly from my front porch to the recycling bin.
